I\u2019ve never given, or received, a car as a gift. Sorry, Lexus.\u00a0Sure, it\u2019s a nice\u00a0<\/span>idea<\/em>, but it’s not realistic for most of us. Instead, try our list of fun (and mostly affordable) gift suggestions for every type of driver on your list.<\/p>\n From key chains to window decals, help your friend or family member show their team spirit with an awesome auto accessory. Surprise them by applying a\u00a0giant decal\u00a0to their rear window or adding a frame to their\u00a0license plate. There\u2019re plenty of excellent\u00a0<\/span>tailgating\u00a0<\/span><\/a>items out there, too, that they can use on, in, or around their car!<\/p>\n Keep your loved ones from getting lost when you wrap up a\u00a0<\/span>Garmin\u00a0<\/span>or\u00a0<\/span>TomTom\u00a0<\/span>GPS. With a range of prices and functionalities, you can get them a basic model to help maneuver around town, or enough maps to navigate across North America and Mexico!<\/p>\n I\u2019m terrible about washing my car. And just forget about anything fancy like shampooing the upholstery or polishing the dash! Whether you want to give a basic wash or spoil them with the works, you can be sure an\u00a0auto detail gift card\u00a0<\/span>will put a smile on any driver\u2019s face.<\/p>\n If your loved one has trouble keeping everything in its place, try an interior organizer. They can hang one on the\u00a0<\/span>back of a seat\u00a0<\/span>for kids or passengers to access essentials, or use something like the\u00a0<\/span>High Road Auto Cargo Tote\u00a0<\/span>to keep a trunk or hatch area tidy.<\/p>\n And for the pet lover on your list, how about some\u00a0<\/span>seat covers? Help them protect their interior and keep their pet safe at the same time.<\/p>\n Experience what it feels like to really race your car.<\/p>\n We all have that friend or family member who likes to think they\u2019re racing for the checkered flag. So why not keep them away from a pricy traffic ticket and give them the chance to drive like a racecar driver for real? Try a gift certificate to a real racing school like\u00a0<\/span>Skip Barber Racing School<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>or the\u00a0<\/span>Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure<\/a>. Whether they want to try open wheel or hug the curves in a high-performance luxury car, these schools offer a chance to see what racing is really like.<\/p>\n If they\u00a0still have the speed bug, you might want to consider investing in a\u00a0<\/span>Radar Detector. Or, there\u2019s always a gift certificate to\u00a0<\/span>I Drive Safely\u00a0<\/span>online traffic school, just in case!<\/p>\n When it\u00a0comes to cars and driving, there are plenty of gadgets and gear to be had. A great little item that can come in handy and costs under 20 bucks is a dual\u00a0<\/span>tire gauge\/emergency hammer. You never know when they\u2019re going to need to check their tire pressure or\u2026 hammer something.\u00a0Know someone who hasn\u2019t embraced the hands-free law yet? Try a\u00a0<\/span>Bluetooth\u00a0<\/span>wireless headset for their cell phone. There are plenty of models out there to suit any style and budget.<\/p>\nThe Sports Fan<\/h2>\n
